Quote from JordinB

is perch giving the notification that the resource folder isn’t writable anymore?

Yes. Usually when you create Database users, you can specify read and write privileges.

Hey Perch Community,

I have a client that has had perch for around 3 years. All has been fine and Dany until now

They have an issue now where none of the folders on the server are writable by any DB user we create with read/write privileges. Any ideas onto what's going on? Is this version of Perch too old?

I am not hosting. My Perch diagnostic code is below.

Thanks in advance ti any insight!

Cheers, Matt

Hey Perch Community,

I have 3 search functions on a members landing page. One field states to search by "Name", the other "Country", and the last field by "Area of Expertise". I notice when you search, Perch will find an instance of the search item, but not the entire search string.

Example: Searching by "Area of Expertise" with the value "Pediatric Oncology".

This search will pull up multiple profiles with some containing "Pediatric" and some others only containing "Oncology" but not profiles containing only "Pediatric Oncology".

What am I doing wrong?

Here is the search code

Code

<perch:form id="search" method="get">
<div id="name">
<perch:input type="search" id="m" placeholder="Search by name..."/>
<perch:input type="submit" value="Search" />
</div>
<div id="country">
<perch:input type="select" id="c" placeholder="Search by country..." options="United States of America, Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, Andorra, Angola, Antigua & Deps, Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belarus, Belgium, Belize, Benin, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bosnia Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei, Bulgaria, Burkina, Burma, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Canada, Cape Verde, Central African Rep, Chad, Chile, People's Republic of China, Republic of China, Colombia, Comoros, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Danzig, Denmark, Djibouti, Dominica, Dominican Republic, East Timor, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Fiji, Finland, France, Gabon, Gaza Strip, The Gambia, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Grenada, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Holy Roman Empire, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Republic of Ireland, Israel, Italy, Ivory Coast, Jamaica, Japan, Jonathanland, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kiribati, North Korea, South Korea, Kosovo, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Malta, Marshall Islands, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mexico, Micronesia, Moldova, Monaco, Mongolia, Montenegro, Morocco, Mount Athos, Mozambique, Namibia, Nauru, Nepal, Newfoundland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Niger, Nigeria, Norway, Oman, Ottoman Empire, Pakistan, Palau, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Prussia, Qatar, Romania, Rome, Russian Federation, Rwanda, St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia, Saint Vincent & the, Grenadines, Samoa, San Marino, Sao Tome & Principe, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Serbia, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Solomon Islands, Somalia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Swaziland, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Thailand, Togo, Tonga, Trinidad & Tobago, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Tuvalu, Uganda, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu, Vatican City, Venezuela, Vietnam, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe"/>

Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Disregard! I have answered my own question.

Code

<perch:if id="type" value="multiplechoice">
</perch:if>
<perch:if id="type" value="trueandfalse">
</perch:if>

Hey Perch Community,

I'm wondering if you can use a Perch select box to trigger an if statement? I'm using it to switch between multiple choice or true of false questions on an exam. Below is my code so far...

Code

<perch:content id="type" type="select" label="Type of exam question" options="Multiple Choice|multiplechoice, True or False|trueandfalse" allowempty="false" required suppress>

Below are my if statements...

Code

<perch:if id="type" options="Multiple Choice|multiplechoice">
</perch:if>
<perch:if id="type" options="True or False|trueandfalse">
</perch:if>

I know this can easily be done with checkboxes, but I'm wondering if it's also feasible with a select box.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers, Matt
